I'm currently a Junior at Forest Trail Academy. Let me just start off by saying Forest Trail Academy saved me!!!
I attending going to a public school my freshman year and liked it. I then started pursuing golf and had to miss a lot of school because I travel all around to play in tournaments, etc. I then had to do something else because I couldn't keep missing school like I was when I knew there were online high schools out there. I then enrolled into BYU Independent Study. DO NOT GO THERE! There is no teacher help or communication. Because of this lack of communication, I am now a Junior instead being a Senior right now. With the BYU program, you have to pay to take your finals. If you fail the final, you can pay to take it again. If you fail it the second time, you fail the class, no matter what grade you have in that class. What a waste of money and time!
I finally had enough of BYU Independent Study and found Forest Trail Academy!! The administration and teachers are WONDERFUL!!!! They will do anything to help you out in any way! The teachers respond within 24 hours of your question. Teachers will also schedule chat times each week so you can go in the chat room that the school provides, where you can ask questions and receive help! You are able to get classes done so much faster than if you were attending a public school! It is possible to finish a subject that takes a whole school year in a public school and get it done in a few weeks. You don't have kids interrupting you and teachers stopping and starting throughout the class. You don't have to deal with a lot of "wasted time". You will definitely get classes done so much faster if you put your mind to it at this school! You also have a way to communicate with other students that go to Forest Trail Academy. It is somewhat like a "Facebook/Myspace" but much safer because there are no outside people plus the school can monitor what goes on.
Over all if I had a chance to start my whole school career again, I would have started at this school MUCH MUCH sooner than I did. You won't be making a bad choice by enrolling in Forest Trail Academy!!!
